I have three of the 9 cube storage shelves you can buy at Target on sale several times a year. It holds the fabric cubes and is white. On top of these I have a 6'x3' board that I bought at Lowe's. I have the three book cubes holding this board which I covered with fabric. I use it as a cutting table, a sewing table, or both whatever I need at the time. I have one of the dining room tables that has 8 chairs and they are tall chairs. I borrowed one of the chairs and I use it as my sewing room chair to use working at my improvised table. It all works great and since I already had the shelf cubes it was relatively cheap.
